After dental school, Dr. Lexi completed two years of specialty training in pediatric dentistry at the Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago and the Feinberg School of Medicine at Northwestern University. During residency, Dr. Lexi was selected to serve as Chief Resident, gained robust experience in caring for children with complex medical histories and special health care needs and provided emergency care to children with dental trauma.
